Chapter 369: New Year’s Eve
[Hey, as a senior chess fan, I have to say: I’m having a bit of a jam this year! 】
【Master Liu won the World Championship, it feels like China has not won the World Championship for a long time! 】
【Well, I have lost three in a row. 】
[According to the lunar calendar year, there are four world championships this year, Sanshuang, Spring Orchid, LIG, and Dream Lily. In March last year, Xiaolei won the Sanshuang Cup, and Liu will follow up. The young master won two championships and one runner-up, but the only LIG Cup he didn't win was given to Lao Li! 】
【Why! Not to mention the world championship, there is not even a single women’s world championship, okay! 】
【This year’s two women’s world championships have been rounded up by the Ice Queen again. They have won four consecutive women’s world championships, with a total of eight women’s world championships! 】
【Well...the woman, Queen Zhao, and the little witch have to give them some more time, so they have to wait. 】
【What I am more troubled about is mainly men. 】
[After the first three games of this year’s Sanshuang Cup Draw Holy War, I originally thought that Xiaolei had already cooperated with the strength of the country and was about to gradually gain momentum. However, it only took half a year to become like this! 】
[The Empress Zhao still does a lot of harm to others, and the Go Queen is well-deserved! 】
【? ? ? 】
【No, how can you blame Empress Zhaotian for this? 】
【I won’t say whether this is a rumor or not! Xiao Lei is not bad now, right? 】
[After the Sanshuang Cup, the three world competitions were guaranteed to be in the top eight. The chess holy war once pushed Lin Ruixin to a desperate situation. He won seven consecutive games in the Nongshim Cup. He also won seven games and lost two in the last nine rounds. The last game Lin Ruixin took revenge in his turn and brought the Dajing team to the eighth position. 】
[Such a performance, although not as good as Da Cui and internet celebrity Lin at the same age, is no worse than Xiao Cui, Chairman Shang and Young Master Liu. 】
【Considering that Master Liu is only five and a half years older than him and is still at his peak, Xiao Lei might have achieved the achievement of clearing the Nongshim Cup by himself if Master Liu had not been there to defend him. ! I think he, the number one person in the future, is fully qualified so far! 】
【Besides, how can we have the shame to criticize Xiao Lei and Zhao Tianhou now! 】
【If the two of them hadn't won seven consecutive games to secure the Nongshim Cup and Lakeside Cup championships, this year would have been even more miserable! 】
【So...it's really true...】
[Xiao Lei’s upward trend since last year has been too strong, which makes my expectations too high...]
[But... what about Lin Daqi Sage? Lao Li is still jumping up and down in his thirties! Why is it so difficult for someone who has just turned 27 to reach the semi-finals of the World Series? 】
[Actually, I feel that Internet celebrity Lin still has his foundation. During the chess holy war this year, the first game was quite decent, but he was a little unable to maintain his form]
[If If the winner is decided in one set, I think Lin Ruixin is still okay]
[Ha! Just a decisive battle? Then how come the Nongshim Cup was cheated by Master Liu three times in a row? 】
[Uh... your question really stopped me...]
[Perhaps it can only be said that Mr. Liu in the Nongshim Cup is too strong? 】
【Eh? To put it this way, I’m a little worried that Mr. Liu will not be able to make a string of six in the Nongshim Cup this time, right? After all, didn’t he just win the Lily Cup in his dream with a string of six! 】
【Oh, how many times have I talked to you about science upstairs! 】
【Be at ease! This time Mr. Liu wants to make a comeback in the Nongshim Cup. The difficulty is much greater than winning the World Series with six in a row...】
"This year..." ”
February 3rd, the 24th night of the twelfth lunar month.
Ni Jue, who was preparing for the New Year at home, saw a year-end summary post on an online Go forum in his spare time, and couldn't help but feel a little emotional. Although...
In particular, although Li Wangyuan did not say it explicitly, Ni Jue could still feel that his master still very much hoped that his students could show off their skills in the Three Kingdoms Go Tournament, which represented national honor.
However, Ni Jue was only selected into the Nongshim Cup lineup twice in 2014 and 2016, with a total of two wins and two losses, which is hardly ideal.
And 17 years later, AI began to become more and more popular, and his focus began to gradually shift to the research of AI blind spots. His daily strength was greatly reduced, and it was extremely difficult to win the world championship or pass the group competition selection.
But now that Rui Zhao is a student, he has won seven consecutive victories in this competition. Ni Jue can obviously feel that the teacher is in a good mood, and even this old antique who loves to study even posted a message on Moments!
Well...it's really good to have a junior sister!
I heard that after the new year, the teacher and Yu Jiuduan plan to teach Rui Zhao about knife making and official restraint respectively. I will go and help when I have time!
Originally, in the middle of the year, I was still thinking about whether, as I was almost 30 years old, I should go out and win face for my master before completely retiring.
Since I am no longer needed in the arena competition, I must make my contribution elsewhere!
Anyway, except for the two title battles, everything else is basically in a state of ruin...
Just when the celebrity Tianyuan's little abacus is flying, I don't want to end it at this moment. A WeChat message arrived:
[Looking into the distance]: Screenshot.jpg
[Looking into the distance]: Xiao Ni, this was just posted in our old Budden circle. I don’t have Xiao Chu’s friends. Can you help me check it out? Is this true or false?
【Looking into the distance】: You will definitely not lose to Rui Zhao? This Xiao Chu has such a big tone!
Ni Jue was stunned for a moment, and then quickly looked at the picture sent by his master.
I saw this was a screenshot of the Moments, and it was the Moments that the last Rookie of the Year winner had just posted half an hour ago!
[Chu Jun: I originally wanted to publish it after the New Year, but now I have published it and have a good New Year! 】
【Recently, many people have been asking me about the newbie king in this competition, especially whether I will lose to Rui Zhao. 】
【Although I think it’s good for female chess players to be motivated to compete with men, I think they are still too confident in their own abilities when making such big claims. 】
【So I gave a unified answer in the voting circle: I don’t say that I will definitely defend the Rookie King next year, but at least I won’t lose to a female chess player in the Rookie King Game! 】
【Please friends in the industry and the media not to ask similar questions again, thank you! 】
————————————————
[Lin Ruixin, Bian Lele, Fang Zhaoxiang, Tang Guansheng]
[Lin Ruixin: Very supportive, Xiao Chu, I I also think it’s too false to say that Rui Zhao can beat you]
[Lin Ruixin: From my experience with her, I don’t believe that she can beat you]
[Chu Jun replied to Lin Ruixin: Thank you, Brother Ruixin]
What is this and what? !
Seeing this circle of friends, Ni Jue felt that there was so much to say and her eyes were a little straight!
Although this statement does not make much sense at first glance, in the Go circle that has always adhered to the principle of "don't say anything that is not conducive to unity", it is still very unusual to openly say such cruel words in the circle of friends that clearly underestimate the opponent. Rare.
Especially when the other party is my junior sister who attracts a lot of attention!
I am afraid that just this screenshot of the voting circle is enough for the media and chess fans to report and discuss for a while, not to mention that a certain Lin Daqi sage is still fanning the flames!
Ni Jue just hurriedly opened his circle of friends and found that the screenshot was absolutely true - the Pengze team youngster had indeed posted it like this!
There is even a rather angry comment from a certain monkey below:
[Sun Yi:? ? ? Xiao Chu, what do you mean? You're looking for me to take the blame, right? ! 】
Before the awkward expression on Ni Jue’s face recovered, Li Wangyuan sent another WeChat message:
[Looking into the distance]: Xiao Ni, don’t pretend to be dead! Did Xiaochu post this on Moments?
[Looking into the distance]: It’s about to happen, help me fight back! Even if I use Xiao Lei to overwhelm my student, is Chu Jun worthy of him? !
Hmm...
Ni Jue looked complicated for a moment. After finally sighing, he dialed Lu Wenjie's phone:
"Vice Chairman Lu...
"Uh... there is something I want to report to you..."
